Personal Identity Project


 We are currently working on our first integrated project: the Personal Identity Project. Through this assignment, we have been working towards several Social Studies, English Language Arts, and Visual Art targets, including:
•learn about personal heritage and identity
•respect the cultural diversity in our classroom
•recognize factors that shape personal and national identities
•manage and communicate ideas
•write properly organized and formatted paragraphs
•follow the writing process
•create original art to communicate ideas
•practice collage technique
Students may be bringing home their writing drafts to work on over the next week or two.  Watch for photos of finished work to be posted as we complete our art work.
